How the den works
They learn the Scout Oath, the Scout Law, and how a Webelos den shares the work. This is the Bobcat adventure, and it comes first.
4th grade
Webelos
Your child starts at the rank for the grade they are in now. The year is built from short adventures, not a textbook. Every den begins by learning the Scout Oath, the Scout Law, and how their den works.
More of the planning is theirs
Webelos means We'll Be Loyal Scouts. Fourth graders take a bigger share of the ideas and the jobs. A parent does not have to be at every meeting.
The den meets on a time those families choose. Email us and we will tell you when the Webelos get together.
What Webelos do and learn
Stronger, faster, higher
This fitness adventure is games and challenges that build endurance, strength, and the nerve to try something hard.
Personal safety
My Safety is how to look after themselves as they go more places with friends, and who to tell when they need help.
Family
My Family is your household and your own faith. Scouting asks them to think about it. It does not assign a belief.
How a community works
My Community is citizenship up close: who does what in a town, and how a Scout can help.
A walk they plan
Webelos Walkabout is a hike of about two miles. They help plan it, walk with a buddy, and talk about what to do if the group gets split up.
The den also picks at least two extras, such as camping, fishing, building, a race, or another outdoor skill. Those are chosen by the families in the den. They are not a set pack calendar.

Tell us you have a 4th grader. We will write back with when that den meets. No uniform and no registration for the first time.
